All on Board Lost.

HALIFAX, n. s., Jan. 26-At about
$50 o'clock last night at Upper Prospect
cries of distress were heard off shore, but
no vessel could be discovered through the
darkness, and the boisterous sea rendered
any attempt al rescue an impossibility. The
cries continued for a time. being heard
quite distinctly. Then they became fainter
and fainter and finally ceased. This morn
ing small quantity of wreckage was
washed ashore, consisting of piece of
main mast, section of the vessels
bulwarks and number of bar
rel slaves. The fragment of the
main mast was evidently part of
one belonging to schooner of about eighty
tons burthen. A liquor cask, which also
drifted ashore, bears the name of p. Doyle
that of Halifax merchant, but Mr.. Doyle
states that the wrecked vessel cannot be one
of his. The slaves of a tub show the name
of p. r. Burns. Murdoch, p. E. l., which
however. affords no clue to the identity of
the vessel. No portion of the wreck is Wis
ible above water, and the sea has been so
rough all day that no boat could be
launched. 1t is considered certain that all
on board the vessel were lost There were
probably six men aboard of her. and per-
haps eight.
1t is now believed that the schooner
wrecked near Upper Prospect was the c.
Graham, Capt. Coleridge, from Bermuda
for Halifax. All hands, six in number,
were drowned. The vessel was owned by
Charles c. Reed. of this city, and was in
sured for 81, 500.

Northwestern is Violating the
Agreement.

and Threats Made of
Hot Work.
Notes From Chicago Regarding Re
cent Events III the Rail-
way World.
All Western Roads But One Enter
Into the shippers Pass
Agreement.

Several of the roads running between St.
Paul and Chicago claim to have discovered a
very serious case of breaking the rules govern
ing passenger rates between these two cities.
1t is asserted that the Minnesota & North
western took fifteen of the Ryan walters, who
struck, to Chicago at half-fare rates and in
violation OF the agreement governing passen-
ger rates. This agreement allows roads to
carry help for hotels for half fare. provid-
ing the proprietor of the hotel requests the
load to do so. In this case, it is asserted
that the proprietor of the Ryan went so far
| as to declare that the road that carried the
strikers was no friend of that hotel. 1t is an
admitted fact that the minnesota s. North
western did carry about fifteen of the
strikers, and the other roads declare that the
rate was 1918 for fourteen of them and that
the fifteenth man had u free pass. The Min
nesota Northwestern people admit that
they carried the walters but affirm that they
took them the ordinary way and that they
did not violate any part of the agreement in
doing so. They also charge back that the at
tack on the Minnesota u Northwestern is
nothing but spite work and JEALOUSY The
other roads express a determination 10 pre-
pare the case and carry it before the COM
SiOner.

Chicago Notes.

CHICAGO, Jan. &c. ]. Grammer, traffic
manager of the Peoria, Decatur & Evansville
railroad, stated to-day that he had received q
telegram from Commissioner Blanchard, say
ing that General Manager Talmage, of the
Wab ash road. hac ordered the Wabash bal
ances IN the Peoria pool, up to Dec. 81, to be
paid forthwith. The Peoria, Decatur s. Ev-
anSvile Mr.. Grammer said, would therefore
paJ what it owed in the Peoria pool. He added
that Commissioner Blanchard would at once
arrange q conference with the Rock island Off
Gals, and endcavor to have them cancel their
notice of the withdrawal from the pool. The
general freight agents of the Western roads
met to-day, submitted list of shippers
passes issued since Jan. l, and decided to
enforce the pass agreement as adopted by
the managers until April. The Minnesota L.
Northwestern declined to become party to
the agreement, not caring TO cut itself Off
from securing shippers favor by restricting
its issue of passes. The competing lines
have agreed to ignore it, and carry out the
agreement notwiths tandlng its opposition.

WRECK OF THE OUTING.
Terrible Experience of Those or
Hoard q Small Yacht.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. Jan. 26.-Capt.
Cloudman. master of the twentyfour foot
yacht Outing, sent by the magazine of that
name on Nov. Is from Boston on a tour
around the world yesterday told the fol-
lowing story of the wreck of his vessel off
Jupiters inlet:
We had pleasant voyage down the coast
until Jan. II, when we began to have bad
weather. Last Tuesday it blew a hurricane
and burst the mainsail in several places. 1t
was refurled as soon as possible. When the
yacht began labOring and Straining, Mate
Muller got out some kerosene oil, and we
threw teacupful as each huge wave adj
vanced. This caused the waves to calm
down, and it was this that saved our lives.
Huge seas carried away our two dragS and
the vessel was fast filling. Constant pump
ing was necessary. We were compelled to
head her for the beach. Then there being no
help we removed our boots and oilskins, and
buckliug our belts q hole tighter,
we were prepared for the crisis.
When about three hundred yards from
the beach we prepared to jump over
board. Just then Muller shouted shark I
looked and saw a fifteen-foot fellow showing
out Of water between US and the shore. We
shuddered, paused, and the shark disap
peared. Muller jumped. The undertow
caught him and dragged him down, but by a
hard struggle he came up and swan for the
L
/ can't swim a stroke, though sailor for ten
years. By hard work we made some progress
towards the shore. The waves were running
high and the breakers were awful to contem-
plate. Finally Muller, by movement of an
oar he carried, succeeded in reaching a foot
ing, but was about to give up when fur
ious breaker struck me, sending me safely
ashore. Muller caught and pulled me out,
where we rested before the tide came up to
us. Though sore, weak and stiff from want
of food, loss of rest, hard work and exposure,
we reached the life saving station. One min
ute longer in the water would have settled
both of us.
The captain is great believer of oil on
waves. Muller sat for several hours in the
bow with can of oil. carefully watching to
throw cup-full on the water as the waves
came. Both men suspended stocking full
of rags saturated with oil over the bow of
the boat into the water. The men show on
their faces. forms and actions the strain on
their physical and mental powers.
